    Waymo exists and is now moving passengers around in three major cities. It’s not taking over yet, but it’s here and growing.The timeframe didn’t meet the hype but the technology is there.

      Yes, the technology is there but it is not Level 5, it is 3.5-4 at best.

      The point with a full self-driving car is that complexity increases exponentially once you reach 98-99% and the last 1-2% are extremely difficult to crack, because there are so many corner cases and cases you can’t really predict and you need to make a car that drives safer than humans if you really want to commercialize this service.

      Same with generative AI, the leap at first was huge, but comparing GPT 3.5 to 4 or even 3 to 4 wasn’t so great. And I can only assume that from now on achieving progress will get exponentially harder and it will require usage of different yet unknown algorithms and models and advances will be a lot more modest.

      And I don’t know for you but ChatGPT isn’t 100% correct especially when asking more niche questions or sending more complex queries and often it hallucinates and sometimes those hallucinations sound extremely plausible.
